Well, I have talked about this on facebook, but have yet to blog about it. Last month, I found out that I was accepted into UT's Women's Health Nurse Practioner Program. I will be starting the program next month. I am very excited, but am still in shock that I am actually going back to nursing school (am I crazy or what?). It is a 2 year program, with about 1/3 of it being online. It was a very hard decision, but after many discussions with Brian and many prayers, I have decided to do it. It was something I have always wanted to do, and I think if I don't do it now, I will never do it. I actually liked school, but am very anxious about this go around as not only a student, but as a wife and mother. There are still alot of details that I will have to work out, like how long I will be able to work, but right now we are taking it one semester at a time.

And on another note, Brian passed his PMP test that he has been studying so hard for! I am so proud of him. He has shown so much dedication and hard work, it was all worth it!

After church in the morning, we headed over to Bebe's house down the street to spend some time with family and friends. As usual, the food was awesome, and we were sooo stuffed. The kiddos loved hiding eggs and enjoyed the fabulous weather.

The Easter bunny left a trail of eggs behind.....

which lead to Avery's Easter basket on the porch, he almost ate all of the carrots we left him.

Avery got really excited about the Easter bunny this year. She kept saying "the Bunny's coming, the Bunny's coming!", and it was the first words out of her mouth when she woke up at a VERY early 6am easter sunday.

On Good Friday, Aunt Rachel and Aunt Chrissy stopped by to color some eggs. Avery loved it.

One day last week, I looked up from cooking dinner, and saw Avery all dolled up. She is such a girl. This is the way she puts a headband on. I think she looks a little 70ish.

A couple of weeks ago, I took her in for her 2 year doctor's appt. Here are her stats:

Height: 36.25 in 95-97%

Weight: 26 lbs 50%

Head: 18.25 25-50%

At just over 2 years old, she is sooo girly. I think it is just something she was born with. Brian still thinks I have alot to do with it, oh well..... One of favorite things is still chapstick. She actually calls it "lipstick". And don't you dare give her a plain mint one. She told me the other day, "NO, I don't like this one, I want the other one." (She knew that in my makeup bag I had a pink pomagranete lipbalm, instead of the plain blistex I had tried to give her.) The girl knows exactly what she wants! She even asked for earrings the other day while in the car. While I was putting on my earrings, she really noticed them, and asked if she could have some too. I simply told her that she would have to ask Daddy when we got home, but we didn't really say too much more. As soon as we walked in the door, she walked directly to Brian, and started shouting "Earrings, Earrings, pleassssse earrings daddy!" He didn't even know what to say, so her just tried to distract her.

This past week, Brian and I got a chance to go to a Rockets game. Even though they lost, it was still a blast. Neither one of us really follows basketball, but we had fun anyways. Thanks Aunt Chrissy for watching Avery!

About Me

Brian and I were introduced in 2003 by friends, while I was in nursing school. We got married in October 2005 and currently live in Magnolia, TX with our little daschund, Reba. I am a Women's Health Nurse Practitioner at an office in North Houston. We welcomed our little girl, Avery in February 2008, and our son, Brady, in the summer of 2012. Our lives are definitely not perfect, but we are very happy with our little family.
